Except that all 358 MW from Cromby and the power from Montgomery County Recycling center must be consumed first before Richmond, Schuylkill, Delaware, Eddystone, DRMI, Eagle Point, Camden Paper, Limerick, Burlington, Croyden, US Steel, and Mercer take up UTs load. Those other fossil fuel plants that would also contribute alongside Limerick were conveniently forgotten (if distance is a criteria). So now we have a number still somewhere at 20% nuclear.
What is Montgomery County Recycling center? Are you refering to the Fairless Hills USS plant that burns the methane from Tullytown and Grows landfills?
Now I don't know how or where Limerick is tied into the grid so figuring the distance the juice travels is out. But other than Cromby which makes more than the Cellar needs, I don't see anything closer, physically, than Limmerick.

I like the interesting puffy, almost mushroom shaped clouds from the tops of the towers. I see them most days on the way to work.
Just water vapor. Non-nukes can use cooling towers also, if they don't have a lake or river to provide cooling.
